In Care Of Mailing

Well #1 is the closest, except:
Madonna
c/o Warner Bros.
123 Wilshire Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 92022
In this example:
A. is Madonna
B. is Warner Bros.
So B. is really the recipient or to whom the mail is delivered.
and A. is the intended recipient of your correspondence but only if party B. Warner Bros. actually gives Madonna her mail.
It does mean "In care of" and is used most often when you are sending mail to A.- 'your friend' who is currently residing temporarily or receiving mail at B.- A hotel, A family member's house, or temporarily staying at a friends house while looking for an apartment.
The c/o could also be used to send mail to a business that can hand deliver the mail to a client, for instance, on a business trip.
So in the case of sending 'your friend' mail at someone else's apartment (or especially a 'person' via a business address) it is not only polite to list the address of the person (or business) residing there, but the post person may not deliver the mail if it is only addressed to 'Your Friend' who is not in the postmaster's knowledge residing at said residence.

Person A is the final recepient. Person B is the intermediary.
For example, an address would be:
Marianne Taylor
c/o John Smith
Oostzeeplein 21
Rotterdam 3281 AM
The Netherlands
c/o actually means care of! :)

Put name the person that your sending the letter to first, then put care of (c/o) before the name of the business or other person's address. Basically, your saying you want the first person to receive the information but the information needs to be mailed in c/o the other person's address.
Hope that was understandable.
